Phone mode Bluetooth System
General information
This system allows you to connect your mobile phone via Bluetooth connec-
tion and to use the hands-free mode, as well as connecting a multimedia
player.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Available functions include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the
phone book, access to the call list, music playback via streaming audio and
control of the voice recognition system.
Before using the Bluetooth system, the mobile phone should be connected
to the vehicle installation via Bluetooth ⇒ page 39.
Switching on/off
The Bluetooth system is activated when the ignition is turned on and it is
deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition.
With the system activated, if the “PTT” is pressed the voice control activates
and if there is no telephone connected, Bluetooth visible is turned on and a
search for a telephone is begun.
If there is a call in process when the system is deactivated, the active call is
not cancelled, but transferred to the mobile phone.
Bluetooth
Use compatible Bluetooth devices only. For more information about compat-
ible Bluetooth products, consult your dealership or the SEAT website. Some Bluetooth mobile phones are detected and connected automatically
when the ignition is switched on. For this to take place the telephone must
be switched on and its Bluetooth function activated, and there must be no
active Bluetooth connection from other devices.
Bluetooth connections are free.

Exchange of information between the mobile phone and the Bluetooth
system
The mobile phone system sends the data and the requests via Bluetooth to
the mobile phone that is connected. If the connected mobile phone is tem-
porarily “overloaded”, it may not respond to the requests from the Blue-
tooth system. The following message is shown in the instrument panel dis-
play: “Mobile phone does not respond ”.
In this case, wait for the mobile phone to react or make a new call.

Creation of user profile
Each telephone must be paired to the Bluetooth system before using it for
the first time.
When pairing a mobile phone for the first time, you will be asked to create a
user profile. A user profile is necessary for you to connect the mobile phone
to the SEAT system. Once the user profile has been created, your telephone
can be connected automatically or manually ⇒ page 41, Automatic pair-
ing, without having to repeat the initial pairing process each time. The
phone will be connected automatically as long as the corresponding user
profile has not been deleted using the telephone menu or the Factory set-
tings function.
A maximum of four user profiles can be created. If you try to create a fifth
profile the system will ask you to erase a profile of your choice.
The pairing process can take several minutes depending on the size of the
phone book.
The procedure for pairing your mobile phone to the SEAT system for the first
time is described below. The procedure can be started from the vehicle sys-
tem using the Telephone menu on the instrument panel or from the mobile
phone. Both methods are described below ⇒ page 39 and ⇒ page 40.
Pairing the mobile phone with the system in the
instrument panel menu
In order to pair the mobile phone with the vehicle's Bluetooth by searching
for devices from the Telephone menu in the instrument panel, follow the
steps below:
40Phone mode
In the mobile phone
● Activate the Bluetooth function on your mobile phone.
● Activate the Bluetooth visibility on your mobile phone.
In the vehicle
● Turn on the ignition with the key.
● Select the Telephone menu on the instrument panel display.
● Select the function Search for Telephones to search for Bluetooth devices
within the range of the system. At the end of the search, a list of the devices
found is displayed.
Pairing the mobile phone
● Select the desired telephone from the list on the instrument panel dis-
play.
● Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
● When requested, follow the steps to confirm/enter the PIN. Depending
on the technology supported by your mobile, different actions will be re-
quested.
● Upon attempting to connect for the first time, the system will ask you to
confirm that the password shown on the dash panel display is the same as
that displayed on the mobile phone. Confirmation must be made both on
the mobile device and on the instrument panel using controls on the steer-
ing wheel. This password will be a 6 digit code generated randomly each
time according to SSP technology. The system is capable of supporting SSP
(Secure Simple Pairing) in order for the pairing to be performed in a com-
pletely secure manner. SSP pairing can only be carried out if your device
supports the SSP function.
● Confirm the connection instructions in the mobile phone.
● Confirm on the instrument panel the message saying that a new profile
has been created. ●
The contacts in your mobile phone book are copied to the vehicle sys-
tem.
● The pairing is complete.
Pairing with the mobile phone
Follow the instructions below to pair the mobile phone with the Bluetooth
system:
● Activate the Bluetooth in the mobile phone.
● Turn on the ignition with the key. The vehicle system will be visible to
the mobile phone via Bluetooth for 3 minutes. If the 3 minutes have passed
you can also switch on Bluetooth visible again for 3 minutes by pressing the
button “PTT”.
● Search for Bluetooth devices using the mobile phone. Refer to the mo-
bile phone manual for instructions.
● A list of devices found is displayed on the mobile phone. From this list,
select the device SEAT_BT. Upon attempting to connect for the first time,
the system will ask you to confirm that the password shown on the dash
panel display is the same as that displayed on the mobile phone. Confirma-
tion must be made both on the mobile device and on the instrument panel
using controls on the steering wheel. This password will be a 6 digit code
generated randomly each time according to SSP technology. The system is
capable of supporting SSP (Secure Simple Pairing) in order for the pairing to
be performed in a completely secure manner. SSP pairing can only be car-
ried out if your device supports the SSP function.
● Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
● When asked to do so, enter the PIN number 1234 and confirm.
● The contacts from the mobile phone's memory and/or SIM card 1)
are
transferred to the vehicle system. Some mobile phones may display a mes-
sage asking for confirmation of access to the phone book or other options,
1)
Depending on the mobile phone model and its configuration.
44Phone mode
If the system does not recognise your command, there is a first help option
which allows a new input. After the second failed attempt, the system re-
peats the second part of the assistance cue. After a third failure the system
will answer with “Operation cancelled” and the dialogue will be ended.
Disconnecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 25 or ⇒ Fig. 26 on the steering
wheel multifunction control to end the dialogue at any moment. If the sys-
tem is waiting for a command, you can end the dialogue with the “CANCEL”
command.
Interrupting an on-going message
By pressing the “PTT button” ⇒ Fig. 25 or ⇒ Fig. 26 during the mes-
sage, only the current message is ended and it is possible to give another
command.
Proper use of the voice control
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● Avoid poor articulation of words.
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.
● Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).
● At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out back-
ground noises.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue. ●
The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend us-
ing the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers.
Voice control commands
Voice control is available in the following languages: Spanish, Mexican Spanish, German, English, US English, French, Canadian
French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and Dutch.
The user can change the language in the instrument panel using the multi-
function steering wheel ⇒ Booklet Instruction Manual.
The languages available in each vehicle depend on the destination of the
vehicle.

effectDescriptionUsersConnect or disconnect already defined users, rename or de-
lete user profiles. When changing the user, the system may need to perform connection consultations in the mobile
phone and on the instrument panel display. The system
permits two Bluetooth devices to be connected and used
simultaneously, to perform different functions. In this
case, one device will be used as hands-free (connected to
the HFP profile) and the other as a media player (connec-
ted to the A2DP profile).
Add userSelect Add user so that the device starts to search for Blue-
tooth compatible mobile phones. If you try to connect an
"unknown" mobile phone, the system will check whether
you have already created four user profiles. As it is only
possible to store up to a maximum of four user profiles, it
may be necessary to delete a profile.
